US President Donald Trump announced that his first overseas trip in his second term will likely include stops in Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar, highlighting economic ties and potential investments.
US President Donald Trump said on Monday that his initial foreign trip after re-election would likely include visits to Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Qatar.
Speaking from the Oval Office, he mentioned that the trip could take place next month or slightly later. He emphasized the significance of the UAE and Qatar, suggesting that additional countries might also be included in his itinerary.
His statement followed a report by Axios indicating that White House officials were planning a visit to Saudi Arabia in mid-May to acknowledge its commitment to investing in US industries.
Trump recalled his previous visit to Saudi Arabia during his first term, when the kingdom pledged $450 billion in investments in the US. He claimed that Riyadh now intends to more than double that amount, approaching $1 trillion, which he described as a major job creation opportunity.
He did not mention Saudi Arabia’s involvement in mediating a potential summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin regarding the Ukraine conflict. However, he reiterated his belief that Putin would eventually support a ceasefire agreement.
